ROASTED RABBIT WITH OLIVES AND FETA

Rabbit is mild and just a little earthy tasting, with silky meat that stays moist if you take care not to overcook it. Here it's quickly roasted with olives, lemon and feta cheese, which melts into a creamy pan sauce to spoon on top. Try to find French feta, which is softer and mellower than its assertive Greek and Bulgarian cousins. While the recipe calls for white wine, you can also make this dish with a light-bodied red. Serve it with crusty bread for scooping up the good, savory sauce.And if you must, yes, you can substitute chicken for the rabbit. Just increase the roasting time, before you add the feta, by 10 minutes.

Steps:

  • Place rabbit pieces in a large bowl and toss with rosemary, oregano, garlic, salt and pepper. Cover loosely with plastic wrap and let stand at room temperature for 1 hour.
  • Heat oven to 400 degrees. In a small saucepan over medium heat, simmer wine until reduced by half.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add rabbit pieces and garlic in a single layer and cook until meat is golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes a side. (If the garlic gets too dark before the rabbit is finished browning, put the garlic on top of the rabbit to keep it from cooking more.)
  • Put lemon slices, olives and half the butter into the pan. Pour in reduced wine. Cover and transfer to oven for 5 minutes. Uncover and scatter feta over top. Continue cooking until rabbit is just cooked through, 5 to 10 minutes more. Stir in remaining butter and more salt if needed, and serve.

RABBIT STIFADO

Most people are familiar with beef stifado but, traditionally, this wonderful dish is made with rabbit or wild hare. In my opinion, the rabbit version is far better than the beef.

Steps:

  • Rinse the rabbit pieces and place them in a mixing bowl together with the bay leaves and vinegar; mix well and leave to marinate for at least 2 hours, or overnight; remove the rabbit from the marinade and pat dry with kitchen paper.
  • Heat half of the olive oil in a large saucepan until hot, add the rabbit and fry the pieces until quite brown on all sides; add the tomato paste, bay leaves (left over from the marinade), sugar, garlic, spices, wine and the hot water.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Bring to the boil mixing well then reduce the heat, cover and simmer for about 1 hour.
  • Meanwhile, heat the remaining olive oil in a frying pan; add the onions and sauté gently for 15 minutes stirring occasionally, until golden all over; after the rabbit has been cooking for 1 hour, add the onions and oil from the frying pan to the saucepan; combine, then re-cover and simmer for a further 15 minutes; fish out the cinnamon stick, allspice berries and rosemary sprig.
  • Note: This can be served with pasta, noodles, rice or oven-roasted potatoes, but my personal favourite is homemade french-fries, which taste delicious dunked in the spicy sauce.

  • Bring a deep pot over high heat and when it’s hot, add the olive oil and the rabbit in one layer (if it doesn’t fit in one layer, you will do it in batches). Let the meat brown well from one side, then flip it to brown from the other.
  • Remove the meat from the pan, add the onion, the allspice, the bay leaves, and some freshly grated black pepper. Stir until the onion is translucent, then return the meat to the pot and add the wine and the pureed tomatoes. When the pot starts to boil again reduce heat to a slow simmer, cover and cook for 30 minutes.
  • After 30 minutes, add the potatoes and the salt. Stir gently and shake the pan to distribute the ingredients evenly. Add enough boiling water (if needed) to almost cover the food, but not completely. Cook for about 1 hour or until the meat and the potatoes are fork tender.
